CodeAccessPermission.Union(IPermission) Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security

Assembly:

System.Security.Permissions.dll

Source:

CodeAccessPermission.cs

When overridden in a derived class, creates a permission that is the union of the current permission and the specified permission.

public:
 virtual System::Security::IPermission ^ Union(System::Security::IPermission ^ other);

public virtual System.Security.IPermission Union (System.Security.IPermission other);

abstract member Union : System.Security.IPermission -> System.Security.IPermission
override this.Union : System.Security.IPermission -> System.Security.IPermission

Public Overridable Function Union (other As IPermission) As IPermission

Parameters

other

IPermission

A permission to combine with the current permission. It must be of the same type as the current permission.

Returns

IPermission

A new permission that represents the union of the current permission and the specified permission.

Implements

Union(IPermission)

Exceptions

NotSupportedException

The other parameter is not null. This method is only supported at this level when passed null.

Examples

The following code example shows an override of the Union method. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the CodeAccessPermission class.

public:
   virtual IPermission^ Union( IPermission^ target ) override
   {
#if ( debug ) 
      Console::WriteLine( "************* Entering Union *********************" );
#endif 

      if ( target == nullptr )
      {
         return this;
      }

#if ( debug ) 
      Console::WriteLine( "This is = {0}", ((NameIdPermission)this).Name );
      Console::WriteLine( "Target is {0}", ((NameIdPermission)target).m_Name );
#endif 

      if (  !VerifyType( target ) )
      {
         throw gcnew ArgumentException( String::Format( "Argument_WrongType", this->GetType()->FullName ) );
      }

      NameIdPermission^ operand = dynamic_cast<NameIdPermission^>(target);

      if ( operand->IsSubsetOf( this ) )
      {
         return this->Copy();
      }
      else if ( this->IsSubsetOf( operand ) )
      {
         return operand->Copy();
      }
      else
      {
         return nullptr;
      }
   }

        public override IPermission Union(IPermission target)
        {
#if(debug)
            Console.WriteLine ("************* Entering Union *********************");
#endif
            if (target == null)
            {
                return this;
            }
#if(debug)
            Console.WriteLine ("This is = " + (( NameIdPermission)this).Name);
            Console.WriteLine ("Target is " + (( NameIdPermission)target).m_Name);
#endif
            if (!VerifyType(target))
            {
                throw new ArgumentException (String.Format ("Argument_WrongType", this.GetType ().FullName));
            }

             NameIdPermission operand = ( NameIdPermission)target;

            if (operand.IsSubsetOf (this)) return this.Copy ();
            else if (this.IsSubsetOf (operand)) return operand.Copy ();
            else
                return null;
        }

        Public Overrides Function Union(ByVal target As IPermission) As IPermission
#If (Debug) Then

            Console.WriteLine("************* Entering Union *********************")
#End If
            If target Is Nothing Then
                Return Me
            End If
#If (Debug) Then
            Console.WriteLine(("This is = " + CType(Me, NameIdPermission).Name))
            Console.WriteLine(("Target is " + CType(target, NameIdPermission).m_name))
#End If
            If Not VerifyType(target) Then
                Throw New ArgumentException(String.Format("Argument_WrongType", Me.GetType().FullName))
            End If

            Dim operand As NameIdPermission = CType(target, NameIdPermission)

            If operand.IsSubsetOf(Me) Then
                Return Me.Copy()
            ElseIf Me.IsSubsetOf(operand) Then
                Return operand.Copy()
            Else
                Return Nothing
            End If
        End Function 'Union

Remarks

The result of a call to Union is a permission that represents all the operations represented by both the current permission and the specified permission. Any demand that passes either permission passes their union.

Notes to Inheritors

You must override this method in a derived class. You should return a copy of the permission if the value of the other parameter is null.
